Looking for a Dungeon Master to get a Text-based Pathfinder game going.

I've been watching the "Looking for Game" stuff a lot recently, but I can't really seem to find a good text-based game, or anything that will interest me.   I'd really love a long-term game that has an interesting story (Or stories) for the players to follow while still allowing the players the option to stray off course if they so desire.  I'd call it a "sandbox" game, but that might lead people into believing that I want a game that the players entirely dictate.     I'd like to have a group of good typists that aren't just going to put in one sentence, and only put that one sentence in when they are going to attack.    People should play their characters and interact with the party.   On the other hand, the DM/GM (Whatever you like to call yourself) should be willing to give the players some space to sit there and Roleplay.    If we're in a tavern, it's the perfect time for our characters to share their backstories, eat, drink, and meet new people.   We could meet NPC's that tell us of rumors, or ask us for help with small tasks in their town/city. Ideally the setting would follow the standard world of Golarion.   I've never had much interest in an entirely homebrewed world. Normally I wouldn't do this - Make a forum post looking for a DM.    I like the idea of a DM looking for players and explaining what THEY want.   But I can't really find anything like what I'm looking for, and I thought maybe this would interest somebody.    Thanks for taking the time to read, and if you have any questions, ask away. Oh, and I can do any day, basically any time except 5-10pm CST on Saturdays.

Selu, there is a group that was created for text chat gamers to recruit for their games in addition to posting here also. It is called  Knights of the Written Word and there are games recruiting in their forum. It doesn't hurt to join and look there.

I remember seeing that group at one time or another.   Thank you for linking it to me, I'll join it and see if I can maybe find a game.

You may wish to clarify what you're looking for more specifically. I recall speaking with you before, and my group falls into your qualifications, but you had no desire to read the setting because several standard options from Unchained were being used, or you had a problem with a lack of permissive race options, or even more permissive class options. I don't actually know - you never explained, stating you'd simply be 'at a loss'. It's hard for GMs to suit your needs if it's just a matter of guessing what, exactly, suits your interests.

Right.   I just checked and the issue was a change in setting and the big racism.    But you made a good point, I forgot to clarify what what exactly I'm looking for.    Thank you. <3 
Bump - I'm interested as well. Selu, another player, and myself would all be happy to stick together as a group for a new game, as we'd been planning to play together earlier but our DM vanished before anything could get going.
